Flashforward

It's October 31st, it's 11:23 PM on Halloween night, in the neighborhood of Greenwich Village as a lot of kids are roaming around still trick-or-treating in costumes, a creepy piano theme is being played on the background along with a wolf howling and a thunderbolt making a crackles, coming up to the Sanctum Sanctorum, through the window and inside the Sanctorum itself is someone sitting in a big comfy swivel chair, he turns around facing the audience is none other than Deadpool wearing a fancy maroon robe.

"Good evening... oh yes, it's that time of the year, Happy Halloween!" Deadpool talking in a creepy voice.

Deadpool chuckles and then he laughs very sinisterly, then he laugh very loudly as the lightning flashes and crackles loudly at the same time, Deadpool continues laughing uncontrollably until he suddenly coughs from all the laughter, he eventually stops and calms himself down.

Deadpool coughing calmly. "Sorry, that was too much... anyway, you all must be wondering why I'm here. I'm glad you asked, I here housesitting for the good ol' Doctor Strange, who's out on his honeymoon with his new wife out in Hawaii, can you believe it? Seems like marriage is on everyone's minds, but I think we're getting off topic, this ain't about me or Mr. and Mrs. Strange, this is about what happened on this very night, and I should warn you, it's gonna be very scary, very frightening, and it might be a good idea to put your parents to sleep, kids, I can wait."

Deadpool mumbles and whistles as he waits patiently for the audience, then he turns back to them.

"Oh, that was quick. Alright kids, to tell this tales, let me takes this back to the yesterday where it all began..." Deadpool is about to tell the story.


It's October 30th, the day before Halloween, time is 11:23 PM in New York City, in the Bronx, tonight is a full moon as at an alley behind the local laundromat a group of Big Ben's thugs are beating up the owner hard in the gut, as the guy is in pain from all the beating he's receiving he's pleading "Please stop!" But another thug just punched him hard in the gut as they mean serious business.

"You're a bit short!"

"Business hasn't been going so good for two weeks, people heard about me paying protection to bunch of lowlife thugs."

One of the thugs got upset and beat him hard again in the gut, marking the guy fall down onto the ground.

"We work for Big Ben, you understand? He's not someone you want to screw with, so watch your mouth and pays some respect."

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry, I'll get you the money as soon as I can."

"Heard that before, you know what happens in our world when people don't pay." The thug crunches his fists, meaning serious business. "They pay, one way or the other, so we'll gonna have to teach you a lesson you'll never forget for next time. Boys, you know what to do."

"No, no, please no!"

The owner is looking very scared he's about to be serious beaten up in the worst way by the thugs, but all of a sudden they stopped upon hearing a growling sound coming from the dark part of the alley, they see a big silhouette making them very nervous, as the lead thug is carefully pulls out his gun.

"Listen whoever or whatever you are, back away or there will be trouble!"

This thing then moves in as the thug got too nervous and fires the first shot, but this thing is too fast as it got in closer and claws at the thug, slicing off his hand and dropped it along with the gun, the owner backed away as this creature is tearing up the thugs into pieces right before his eyes, he retreated back into his business while the thugs are being torn to pieces. Afterwards this creature rushed away from the alley and came out to the streets for people to see, they all became very spooked as some of them are pulling out smartphones and recording everything, this creature looks like a wolf but humanoid as it's standing on it's own two feet with white fur and red eyes.

This wolf creature is looking at all the attention he's getting as he rushed away to escape as everyone in the neighborhood are still in shock upon seeing what they saw with their own two eyes, a few of them are coming towards the alley it came out from only to be more terrified by all the bodies left behind, all bloody and parts of them are scattered. Sometime later this wolf creature came up to the junkyard which is a hangout for a group of bikers called the Ghost Riders MC, it's climbing up the junk debris as it then makes a huge howl all around, standing in front of a full moon. All of a sudden the junkyard is lighting up with fire of some sorts, this werewolf has trouble to deal with.


It's October 31st, time is 6:34 AM in the morning in Forest Hills, Queens at the Parker-Stacy Residence, Gwen Parker is in the bedroom getting dressed up in her regular clothes looking all fancy as always, downstairs in the kitchen is Peter Parker in white t shirt and blue jeans wearing an apron holding a spatula cooking egg-in-the-basket, he's even watching some news on the small tv this is being brought up to DC as the government are concerned about a possible war in Eastern Europe as Latveria is mobilizing it's military near the Symkarian boarder, the news is being reported by Christine Everhart.

"As you can see here in these footages, in the past two weeks Latveria is mobilizing it's military near the Symkarian boarder, there's talks in DC that a war will erupt in Eastern Europe that could spell out trouble for the neighboring countries, Symkaria is still struggling to rebuild from the previous war and frankly doesn't have enough manpower and resources to defend Symkaria, leaving the country completely open to attack, brass in DC is doing everything they can to talk with the Latverian government to avoid a major war, but so far they have been unsuccessful. This is Christine Everhart reporting live from the capitol..."

Peter is worried as this major move of war is all the works of Doctor Doom who seems very driven by his lust for power, now he wants to claim Symkaria by force which could be the beginning of something bigger. He then shuts off the TV as coming down the stair is his wife Gwen all dressed up, he got back to cooking breakfast for his wife.

"Morning honey." Peter said.

"Morning, is that..." Gwen said.

"Egg-in-the-basket, your favorite." Peter said.

"You're the best." Gwen smile.

"Just wanted to impressed my wife." Peter said.

Peter uses the spatula to scoop up the egg-in-the-basket and puts it on the plate, he hands it to his wife as she got a fork and picks up a piece, Gwen is chewing and tasting it with her eyes closed.

"How is it?" Peter said.

"Mmmm, it taste good." Gwen said.

"I learn from the best." Peter said.

"Thanks dear... so are you really okay with me modeling?" Gwen said.

"Yeah, of course, I mean it's been only a couple weeks since you've started, I'll have to get use to people admiring your work and asking for autographs." Peter said.

"Worked well for MJ, she manages to model and attend acting class at the same time." Gwen said.

"She can do it all, and so can you. I'm sure you'll do fine, Gwendy." Peter said.

Gwen and Peter lean in and kiss each other, all of a sudden Peter's phone is getting a message as he pulls it out from his pocket and checks the message.

"Is something wrong?" Gwen said.

"Looks like there have been multiple deaths in the Bronx last night, all gang members, and witnesses say there was some kind of creature making an escape, they say it was a werewolf." Peter said.

"Excuse me, a werewolf?" Gwen said.

"Yeah, looks like there's also a picture in the message, check this out." Peter said.

Peter shows Gwen a photo taken last night of the werewolf, it's got white fur and standing on it's own two legs.

"Huh, and here I thought it was someone dressing up as a werewolf for Halloween." Gwen said.

"Whatever this werewolf is, it's already killed five gangsters, there's no tell if anyone else got hurt or worst." Peter said.

"Which means the Web-Warriors will need to investigate." Gwen said.

"Yeah, let's take a quick look before we head for class." Peter said.

"Agreed, let's go." Gwen said.


It's 7:00 AM in the apartment on the Upper East Side, inside the apartment is John Jameson still asleep in his bed fully naked under the blanket, the alarm clock is still ringing as John is starting to wake up and finds himself in bed, he gets up and the blanket falls off him as he's standing naked looking very confused, he then felt something painful around his abdomen, it look like a wound causes by a chain, he must've bleed out recently, he smells himself as he reeks of meat and blood, especially his mouth as he holds up his hand and let out a breath for him to smell.

"Ehh... why does it smell like pastrami and blood?" John Jameson said to himself.

Later John is in the shower being washed down by hot water still thinking about every strange thing that's been happening to him for the past two years. Sometime later he's out in the living room fully dressed as he picks up the phone and scrolls down his contacts until he came up to the name "ASHLEY", he pressed and made a call to someone he trust, his therapist.

"Hello?" Ashley Kafka said.

"Hello Ashley." John Jameson said.

"John, is that you?" Ashley Kafka said.

"Yeah it's me, sorry if I called you early." John Jameson said.

"It's okay, and please it's just Dr. Kafka." Ashley Kafka said.

"I'm sorry... Dr. Kafka, I know that we don't have an appointment and that it's your day off, but I really need to speak with you urgently." John Jameson looks troubled.

"Is everything alright?" Ashley Kafka said.

"Honestly, I don't know, I just woke up in the bed, but this time it's... different." John Jameson said.

"Different how?" Ashley Kafka said.

"It felt like I was out somewhere, or at least my body was, I don't know how to explain it, but this is something I have to explain in person, if you have the time." John Jameson said.

"Well, I'm gonna be in the city with Marla since I'm her maid of honor, we're gonna organize the venue before the wedding." Ashley Kafka said.

"Ah yes, of course, the wedding." John Jameson said.

"But I have some free time later on if that's okay. Does 7 work for you?" Ashley Kafka said.

"Yeah, sounds good." John Jameson said.

"Okay, 7 it is. Take care, John." Ashley Kafka said.

"You too Ash... I mean Dr. Kafka." John Jameson said.

"I'll see you soon." Ashley Kafka then hangs up.

John is still struggling with himself as he has no idea what he has done while he was blacked out, it felt like his body was elsewhere doing something, he then text a friend and ask him to meet him at the Coffee Bean later today.


It's 7:55 AM in the Bronx, the NYPD are keeping the crime scene secured while CSIs are examining the bodies as well as the damage left at the near deli, detectives are talking with the Laundromat owner who still bruised giving details on what happened last night, coming in swinging around the neighborhood where the incident happened, they landed down in a three point stance and came up to the alley as they're approaching the officers.

"Spider-Man, Ghost-Spider, what a surprise."

"What do we have officers?" Spider-Man said.

"See for yourselves."

The officers remove the covers to unveil the all the torn limbs and blood on the pavement as this caught both of them by surprise.

"Whoa!" Ghost-Spider is shocked.

"Yikes... I take it these are the gangsters." Spider-Man said.

"What's left of them, they're all identified as members of Big Ben's gang, the owner over there was getting assaulted badly over protection money until some kind of werewolf came out and attacked them, caught them all by surprise, the owner retreated back into his Laundromat looking terrified. But the deli next door was hit first, the werewolf broke into the meat locker and help itself to whatever packed meat it could get it hands on, including a one big wrap of pastrami. Our guess is these gangsters just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time."

Spider-Man sighs. "They came to deliver a beating and instead they get ripped into pieces."

"It could've gone worse, a lot of people who were there that night all looked terrified upon seeing this werewolf with their own eyes, they were lucky this thing just ran away rather than attack anyone."

"Still, this werewolf is still out there somewhere in the city, today is Halloween, there's gonna be lot of people going out trick-or-treating, no one is safe." Ghost-Spider said.

"Agreed, we have to find this werewolf before anyone gets hurt or worse." Spider-Man said.

"We've already got patrols scouring around the Bronx, trying to pick up a trial, if they spot anything, you'll know."

"Thank you, officer." Spider-Man said.

Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider shake hands with the lead officer on this case as they're about to leave the alley.

"Guess we're off to class then." Spider-Man said.

Ghost-Spider yawns. "I forgot, we were in a rush, we didn't get any coffee."

"Well since we're in the Bronx, I know this place that make a good Cambodian coffee." Spider-Man said.

"Sounds good." Ghost-Spider said.


Time is 10:20 AM at City Hall, coming out of the office is Mayor J Jonah Jameson and his entire staff is following him to the stairs as he's isn't in a good mood due to recent events that occurred last night, not to mention he's got other things on his mind like his upcoming wedding to Marla Madison, walking down towards the first floor and heading towards the outside.

"How bad is it?" Jameson demand an explanation.

"It's a bloodbath up in the Bronx, five dead, a lot of witnesses spotted a wolf creature leaving the scene."

"You gotta be kidding me, we got another one of these menaces roaming around out there in my city." Jameson said.

"The press are gonna be all over this, the public will be on full panic, especially on Halloween."

Jameson sighs. "Great, this had to happen at a worst time, especially with my wedding coming in a few days, speaking of which, how's it going by the way?"

"Everything is set Mr. Mayor, the 620 loft and garden is all booked and ready for November 2nd."

"Good, let's talk to the press." Jameson said.

Jameson and his staff came out of city hall as a number of presses are waiting for the mayor, they see him and are demanding some answers to these werewolf attacks in the city, Jameson steps up in front of podium and waves to the public as they're still unease by recent events.

"Settle down my fellow New Yorkers, settle down..." Jameson waits as the presses are calming down for him to speak. "As you're well aware, an attack occurred in the Bronx last night, we've received confirmation that... it was a werewolf that was responsible for these attacks."

"Mr. Mayor, what is your response to this?"

"Will this cause complications for Halloween?"

"Are the people in serious danger?"

"Calm down, calm yourselves down... my administration is very committed to ensure the safety of our citizens, especially to our children, which is why I'm mobilizing the entire NYPD to patrol around the streets and issuing a shoot-to-kill order for this werewolf, if he is sighted anywhere in the city, they're have strict order to shoot on sight, we cannot let this menace roam around free while innocent lives are at risk, if they find this werewolf, they'll try put him down for good... Thank you, no more question." Jameson finished speaking.

Jameson is retreating back to City Hall as the press still have more question, Jameson is fully dedicated in having the NYPD finding this werewolf and putting it down through lethal force when it comes to it.


It's 12:03 PM in Tribeca at the Coffee Bean, John Jameson is waiting all alone as he's looking at the news about the recent werewolf attack in the Bronx last night and his father issuing an order to kill this werewolf on sight, the TV is showing images of the this werewolf captured by smartphone as this has John more curious than ever, for some reason he can't ignore this, all of a sudden the table is trembling along with the other, a big thumping sound as coming into the Coffee Bean is the new hero called the Thing, John knows him as fellow astronaut Ben Grimm.

"Ben!" John Jameson calling out.

Ben Grimm spotted John waving to him as he came up to meet an old friend and hugs John.

"Johnny, it's been a while." Ben Grimm said.

John Jameson smile. "Sure has, and it's just John by the way."

Ben Grimm broke off the hug. "Sorry, old habits."

"Care to take a seat?" John Jameson said.

"Ah... not a good idea for me. I rather just stand." Ben Grimm said.

John took a seat and hands Ben Grimm his coffee drink as the man drank it all up.

"Wow, last time I saw you were anxious to head back up into outer space on a space frontier, and now look at you, came back to Earth as a new man, and a hero." John Jameson said.

"Yeah, not quite how I expected my life to turn out, I knew there were risk, but never occurred to me to have powers, or to look like this." Ben Grimm said.

"I'm sorry." John Jameson said.

"Don't be, in a strange way, it was a blessing." Ben Grimm said.

"How so?" John Jameson is curious.

"I met someone recently." Ben Grimm said.

"Wait, are we talking about a lady?" John Jameson smile.

Ben Grimm smile. "Her name is Alicia, she's the woman I saved when I came back to Earth, when I became the Thing, I was roaming around trying to avoid any attention to myself, then there she was, in trouble, she got robbed and tossed aside in the middle of the street, a truck was coming towards her, so I rushed over and protected her. I saved her in time, I thought for sure she'd be spooked by seeing me like this, but it turns out she's blind."

"Oh, so she didn't see..." John Jameson said.

"Not at first, but she uses her hands to see, when she felt me she knew in that moment exactly what I looked like, she didn't seemed scared, she never saw me as some kind of monster or a freak... she accepted me for who I am, not just on the outside, but what's inside... she saw that I'm a good man with a good heart." Ben Grimm said.

"Sound like she's one of the good ones... What does she do?" John Jameson said.

"She works an as sculptor, makes real good work, even made a sculptor that looks just like me, got all the details right, she's got real talent. Speaking of which, you got any ladies in your life?" Ben Grimm said.

"Well... there is this one, but I don't think it's going anywhere." John Jameson said.

"Why not?" Ben Grimm said.

"She's my therapist, her name is Ashley Kafka, though she just prefers Dr. Kafka." John Jameson said.

"Wait, you got the hots for your therapist?" Ben Grimm said.

John Jameson sighs. "Yeah... I once asked her out to be my date at a wedding last summer, she's really pretty, but nothing serious ever happened. She doesn't want to break any ethics, she takes her oath as a therapist very seriously." John Jameson said.

Ben Grimm sighs. "I'm sorry John."

"It is what it is." John Jameson is unease as he has something else on his mind.

"Hey... is everything alright with you?" Ben Grimm said.

"Yeah, why wouldn't I?" John Jameson said.

"I can tell there's something else that's bothering you, I'm only asking as a friend." Ben Grimm said.

John Jameson sighs. "Lately I've been feeling... unease, it's been happening ever since our last mission into space. You remember?"

"How could I forget? We got abducted by those beast-looking things, none of us saw it coming. Who would've thought a few days in space would have such an impact on our lives as astronauts." Ben Grimm said.

"Yeah... would've thought?" John Jameson remembering that terrible day.

"That was a couple years ago, why are you bringing it up now?" Ben Grimm said.

"It's not about being captured, it's about what's been done to me... I was experimented on while I was onboard their ship, I don't know what kind of experiments they were doing to my body, but I felt different somehow." John Jameson said.

"Different how?" Ben Grimm said.

"Not sure exactly, ever since we got back from that mission, whenever I've blacking out, I felt like my body has been elsewhere." John Jameson said.

"Like sleepwalking?" Ben Grimm said.

"I'm not sure..." John Jameson said.

All of a sudden the Fantastic Four emblem on Ben's belt is beeping as it got their attention.

"Dang, looks like I'm needed, I'm sorry to..." Ben Grimm said.

"It's okay, duty calls... go." John Jameson said.

John gets up and hugs his friend goodbye.

"Take care John." Ben Grimm said.

"You too, old friend. People are lucky to have you as a hero." John Jameson said.

"Whatever happens John, whatever you're going through, you don't have to face it alone, kept that in mind." Ben Grimm said.

"Will do... go get 'em, Thing." John Jameson said.

Ben Grimm then leaves the Coffee Bean as he's needed elsewhere on a superhero mission, John will need some help in his condition, he can only hope that Dr. Kafka will help him figure out what's going with himself.


Later around 4:40 PM out in the Bronx, all four of the Web-Warriors are swinging around the neighborhood until they landed down just outside the gate to the junkyard, they look up at the sign to see that it belongs to a motorcycle club called the Ghost Riders.

"Are you sure this is the place?" Kid Arachnid said.

"According to the NYPD, there have been calls about a werewolf sighting around this junkyard, hopefully we can find more clues." Ghost-Spider said.

"What do we know about this club? These Ghost Riders?" Spider-Girl said.

"Not much, they're a reclusive MC, pretty much keep to themselves, never had any troubles with them, not even with cops, except when the NYPD wanted to come in to examine the site, they ask them to come back with a warrant." Spider-Man said.

"So what's the plan, boss?" Kid Arachnid said.

"Simple, we knock." Spider-Man said.

Spider-Man then knocks on the gate loudly hoping for someone to come by, inside the junkyard a nineteen year old hispanic male dressed in a cut with the patch "PROSPECT" on it, he's working on a 1969 Dodge Charger until he heard the knocking coming from the gate, he stops his work and came by to open up the gate to see four heroes in costumes.

"Ah... a little earlier a trick-or-treating, don't you think?" Robbie Reyes said.

"What?" Spider-Man until he noticed his suit.

"I'll come back with some candy, Happy Halloween." Robbie Reyes is closing the gate door.

Spider-Man stopped the gate from closing. "Hey, we're not trick-or-treating, and these aren't costume, they're real suits and we're the real heroes."

"Oh! Sorry, I didn't mean any disrespect, I'm pretty new around here. So, what can I do for you?" Robbie Reyes said.

"We've received a tip that a werewolf was spotted here last night, we'd like to come in and investigate if you don't mind." Spider-Man asking for permission.

"Wish I could help, but that's not up to me." Robbie Reyes said.

"Then who would that be up to?" Spider-Man said.

"That'll be our club's president, you'd have to take it up with him." Robbie Reyes said.

"Then takes us to meet him... please." Spider-Man said.

Robbie Reyes sighs. "Follow me."

Robbie Reyes opens up the gate and leads the heroes through the junkyard as they're seeing members of the Ghost Riders MC all wearing identical cuts with a logo of what appears to be a flaming skull with the big letters "GHOST RIDERS" above and the letters "NEW YORK", in the front of their cuts they have patches for "NEW YORK CITY" on the left and "SPIRITS OF VENGEANCE" on the right, these bikers were working on their bikes and hanging out until sees the heroes roaming around their turf.

"So these are the Ghost Riders, are you like a member?" Kid Arachnid said.

"Nah, I just joined up recently, I'm what you call a prospect, before that I was living in the West Coast in LA, until I moved out here to the East Coast, it's actually my first time meeting heroes." Robbie Reyes said.

Coming towards the heroes are three bikers, two of them are males and one is a hispanic female, the lead man has the patch for "PRESIDENT", next male has "VICE PRESIDENT", the Latina has "SGT AT ARMS", Robbie did his job in bringing the heroes to meet with the club officers.

"Hello heroes, welcome to our club, my name is Johnny Blaze, I'm the President of the Ghost Riders, this here is my VP Danny Ketch, and she's my Sergeant Alejandra Jones. So what brings four heroes into our establishment?" Johnny Blaze said.

"I assume you've heard about a werewolf roaming around New York, most recently here in the Bronx." Spider-Man said.

"We've heard on the news, but what does that have to do with us?" Johnny Blaze said.

"Some witnesses say that there was a werewolf roaming around these parts, like here in your junkyard. So we'd like to look around, with your permission of course." Spider-Man said.

"Spider-Man, with all due respect, we're a just a motorcycle club minding our own business, we don't want any trouble." Johnny Blaze said.

"Why? You're hiding something?" Spider-Man is curious.

"Listen, none of us here are saints, we've all made deals with the devil and paid a huge price with our very souls, but we do our best to stay on the side of the angels." Johnny Blaze said.

"If what you say is true, then let us find any clues about this werewolf, he's already killed people and I'm afraid he might hurt more or worse, so let us find something that could help us find it before it's too late." Spider-Man said.

Johnny Blaze sighs. "Alright, there's some blood over at the north end of the junkyard, it might be from the werewolf."

"It's something... thank you." Spider-Man said.

"For what it's worth, I hope you do find it. Ghost Riders, let them look around." Johnny Blaze said.

Spider-Man nods his head as he and the Web-Warriors are heading to the north part of the junkyard with the blessing of their president. The group is heading north and alone far from the Ghost Riders.

"Wow, that went well." Kid Arachnid said.

"Thought for sure we'd have trouble." Spider-Girl said.

"Still, can't help but feel they're hiding something." Ghost-Spider said.

"We'll worry about the Ghost Riders another time, but right now we have a werewolf to find, so let's find it." Spider-Man said.

The Web-Warriors eventually came up to the north part of the junkyard and finds evidence of what appears to be a fight that occurred here last night along with some blood on the ground.

"Whoa, what do you think happened here?" Kid Arachnid said.

Spider-Man came up and examined the sight, he sees some wreckage with claw marks, including some that climbs over the fence to the outside.

"If I had to guess, there was a fight here. The werewolf was definitely here, but it got attacked, looks like it got hit pretty hard by something powerful, powerful enough to injure it, forcing it to climb up the fence and made its escape." Spider-Man said.

"Question is, what did it fight against?" Ghost-Spider said.

"I don't know..." Spider-Man said.

Spider-Man sees some blood on the ground along with some wolf hair as he came up and lower down for a closer look.

"But I think we've just found a lead." Spider-Man said.

Spider-Man pulls out a small evidence kit from his belt, he took in the hair samples along with some blood.

"What are you doing?" Spider-Girl said.

"We're gonna take these to the Spider-Cave and have them analyzed, hopefully it'll tell us more about this werewolf." Spider-Man said.


Later around 5:31 PM at a 620 loft and garden, a wedding venue is being organized here as Ashley Kafka is telling the staff what to do and where to put each items in place, meanwhile Marla Madison is on the phone FaceTiming with her niece Mattie Franklin who's in LA.

"Still can't believe you're getting married, Aunt Marla." Mattie Franklin sounded happy.

"I know, didn't think I could, but here I am, soon to marry the love of my life." Marla Madison said.

"So am I gonna have to call your soon-to-be-husband Uncle Jonah?" Mattie Franklin said.

"Most likely, but I'll feel more confident if you were there on that special day." Marla Madison said.

"You know I'll be there, I've never been to New York before." Mattie Franklin said.

"New York is a big step from LA, a lot of crazy stuff here." Marla Madison said.

"You mean like heroes?" Mattie Franklin said.

"Yes, like heroes and villains, but I'm sure nothing bad is gonna happen at the wedding, but if you're not up to it, then..." Marla Madison said.

"I'd said I'll be there, I don't want to miss out on your big day, Aunt Marla." Mattie Franklin said.

"Can't wait to see you again." Marla sees Ashley Kafka getting worked up. "Listen, I gotta go, I'll see you there at the wedding."

"I'll be there, I love you." Mattie Franklin said.

"I love you too." Marla Madison said her goodbye.

Marla hangs up the call and walks up to Ashley telling the staff where to put where.

"Okay Ashley, I can take it from here." Marla Madison said.

"I don't mind, I pretty much saved you from being a bridezilla." Ashley Kafka smile.

Marla Madison smile. "I appreciate it."

"So... are you nervous?" Ashley Kafka said.

"A bit, never been married before, especially at this age no less. But that doesn't matter, age is irrelevant, now happiness, that's eternal." Marla Madison said.

"That's wonderful... congratulations." Ashley Kafka said.

"Thank you." Marla Madison said.

Ashley pulls out her phone and checks out the time as she's got something else on her mind, Marla picked it on it.

"Everything alright?" Marla Madison said.

"It's about John, I'm worried about him." Ashley Kafka said.

"Did something happen to John?" Marla Madison said.

"I think he's been having another black out, but this one sounded very serious and it has him terrified. I told him that I'd go see him later when I'm free." Ashley Kafka said.

"It's nice to see you care so much for John." Marla Madison smile.

Ashley Kafka blushed in embarrassment. "Of course, why wouldn't I? He's my patient."

"That's not what I meant." Marla Madison said.

"I know where you're going with this, John is my patient and I'm his therapist, there can't be anything more serious between us." Ashley Kafka said.

Marla Madison sighs. "Ashley, tell me honestly, do you have feelings for him? And I'm asking you as a person, not a therapist... Do you have feelings for John?"

"You mean, do I like him?" Ashley Kafka sighs as she nods her heads. "Yes... but as I said, I'm his therapist, it's impossible for us to have any romantic relationship."

"It's only impossible cause you allow it... so don't." Marla Madison said.

Ashley Kafka sighs. "As much as I have feelings for him, I can't. Ever since I was young, all I wanted to do is help people, being a therapist allows me to do that, I worked so hard being the woman I am now, I don't want to jeopardize that by getting involved with a patient I'm still trying to help... I'm sorry, but I can't."

"Ashely... I understand where you're coming from, cause I've been there... I also wanted to help people, for years I've always put my feelings aside, remained professional, and I did, until I met Jonah. When I first met him, I've always thought of him as a some kind of grump, but then I got to saw that he's a good man willing to stand up to do what's right, even at the risk of his own life, I saw that he has heart, that's why I love him." Marla Madison said.

"And you're about to marry him, you're a very lucky woman Marla." Ashley Kafka said.

"I'm only lucky cause I allowed myself to pursue happiness. The point is, we can be professional all we want, but at the end of the day, we're still human, we all need to feel alive, cause otherwise we're not really living at all. Ashley, you're still young and attractive, you have a chance to pursue happiness, don't throw that away for anything... trust me on that." Marla Madison said.

Ashley Kafka listened to Marla's words about having a life outside of her professional one, she admits to having a thing for John, but due to their status as therapist and patient, that proved to be very difficult, especially for Ashley.


It's 6:54 PM at the Spider-Cave, Ganke Lee is at the supercomputer monitoring any activities in case the werewolf has surfaced, meanwhile Peter still in his Spider-Man suit is at the lab table examining the blood sample taken from the junkyard, he noticed something irregular about the DNA, coming back into the cave are Ghost-Spider, Kid Arachnid, and Spider-Girl with some pizza as they're setting the pizza box down and taking off their masks.

"Hey Pete, we're back with pizza." Miles said.

"Okay, I'll eat later." Peter still studying.

Gwen came up to her husband. "Did you find anything?"

"Yeah, check this out." Peter said.

Peter connects the results to the supercomputer for everyone to see, they're looking at the blood sample and its DNA structure, including the mutations.

"Wow..." Gwen said.

"Yeah wow... ah, what's wow?" Miles is clueless.

"This, the sample we've taken, it's human DNA, but it's got traces of wolf DNA in the genetic code structure." Peter said.

"So what does that mean exactly?" Anya said.

"It means that it's not a werewolf per se, it's some kind of human-wolf hybrid, it was created through science." Peter said.

"Ah man! And here I thought we were gonna have to use silver." Miles said.

"What?" Anya is confused.

"You know, silver works best against werewolves, like in the lore." Miles said.

"Sorry to disappoint Miles, but we're not dealing with a mystical creature." Peter said.

"So if it's not a real werewolf, then what do we call it? A Man-Wolf?" Miles said.

"Actually... that's exactly what we should call it, Man-Wolf." Anya said.

"Okay, Man-Wolf it is." Peter said.

"So how do we find this Man-Wolf? If he is human, we still don't know who it could be." Gwen said.

"Ganke, run the DNA against any databases, see if our mystery wolf man is in the system." Peter said.

"On it." Ganke types the keyboard.

"Okay, while we wait, how do you propose we stop the Man-Wolf once we do find him?" Miles said.

"Simple, we create a cure and use it." Peter said.

"Except one problem, neither of us have the knowledge to create one, and Professor Warren is away on a science conference." Gwen said.

"True, but we know someone who's got the knowledge to make a cure." Peter knows such a man.

(Miami, Florida)

At the same time down south in Florida, in the suburbs of Miami, a number of kids are roaming the streets trick-or-treating, at one of the houses are the Connors, inside the house is Martha Connors about to take her son Billy out to trick-or-treat, Dr. Curt Connors is in the living room waving to his wife and son heading out, all of a sudden his phone is ringing as he reaches out with his left hand, he sees it's coming from his old student Peter Parker.

Dr. Connors answered the call. "Peter?"

"Dr. Connors, it's good to hear from you again." Peter said.

"Likewise, but I take it this isn't a social call, is it?" Dr. Connors said.

"No, I'm calling cause I need your help, there's this wolf creature causing trouble in New York, he's already killed five people, luckily they were only bad, but I'm afraid he'll strike again and an innocent life might get hurt, especially on Halloween." Peter explain the situation.

"I'm sorry to hear that Parker, but I don't know how I can help from here." Dr. Connors said.

"We just need your knowledge on how to create a cure, you've done it before many times, Gwen and I can do it from ESU to help Spider-Man cure the Man-Wolf when he confronts him, all we need is the formula that is in your mind... please Doc." Peter said.

"Peter, I've finally found some peace out here, I have a new life with my family, the last thing I want is to get involved in that life anymore." Dr. Connors said.

Peter sighs. "I understand..."

"However... I'm still grateful to you and Gwen for keeping my secret as the Lizard from everyone, still gave me a decent chance at a normal life, even Spider-Man helped with that, the least I can do is help you in some way... very well, I'll give you the formula." Dr. Connors said.

"Thank you." Peter said.

"I'll email you the formula, I hope it helps, good luck Parker." Dr. Connors said.

(Spider-Cave)

"Thanks, we're gonna need it." Peter said as he hangs up and turns to his team. "Okay, Connors is gonna email the formula for the cure soon."

"I still have access to the lab, the minute I get the formula, I'll head over and get started." Gwen said.

All of a sudden the supercomputer finally got a hit on the DNA, got everyone's attention.

"Looks like our mystery wolf is in the military database, let's see who it is." Ganke Lee said.

Ganke Lee accesses the file to see who the DNA belongs to, he shows everyone the photo of the suspect, it made Peter and Gwen completely stunned upon seeing it with his own eyes.

"Peter, that..." Gwen said.

"We have to go now." Peter said.


It's 7:02 as it's about to become night time in Upper East Side as a full moon is about to come into view on Halloween night, people are out trick-or-treating in costumes, inside the apartment John Jameson is waiting alone until he heard the door knocking, he came and opens up as Dr. Ashley Kafka is finally here and came inside the apartment.

"Ashley, I'm sorry I mean Dr. Kafka, thank you for coming. I'm sorry to call you on your day off." John Jameson said.

"It's alright John, you said you were having another blackout and sounded serious. So here I am, let's get started." Ashley Kafka said.

"Please..." John Jameson said.

Dr. Kafka took a seat as did John for a session.

"Okay John, whenever you're ready." Ashley Kafka said.

"Right, so I woke up this morning, naked..." John Jameson said.

"Okay, I think you can skip that part." Ashley Kafka said.

"Sorry, anyway I just woke up feeling weird." John Jameson said.

"Weird how?" Ashley Kafka said

"I felt like I was in a fight, I reeked of meat and blood, but I don't remember anything... Dr. Kafka, what's going on with me?" John Jameson said.

"I don't know, but I liked to try something different this time." Ashley Kafka said.

"Such as?" John is curious.

"Hypnosis." Ashley Kafka said.

Ashley pulls out a metronome and puts it on the coffee table as John is curious as to how this whole hypnosis thing works.

"So how does this work exactly?" John is curious.

"In order to figure out what happened to you, we have to induce you to a hypnotic trance to dive deep into your subconscious, it's the only way you can remember what transpired, that is if you're up to it." Ashley Kafka said.

"To be honest, I've never been hypnotize before." John is nervous.

"It's only to help you remember things, John do you trust me?" Ashley Kafka said.

John Jameson nodded his head. "I do."

"Okay, then let's get started, close your eyes and take a deep breath." Ashley Kafka said.

John closes his eyes and takes a deep breath, calming himself down as Dr. Kafka pulls back the hand on the metronome.

"I'm gonna count down to three, then you'll go into a sleep, ready?" Ashley Kafka said.

John nodded his head with his eyes closed, Dr. Kafka released the hand and the metronome is moving back and forth making a distinct sound.

"One... two... three!" Ashley Kafka said.

John heard the number three as his mind went into a deep sleep and he's diving deep into his subconscious mind, he then finds himself back to the previous night when he was blacked out, he's in a deli somewhere in New York with all sorts of meat all around, looked like he's got his hands on pastrami.

"Tell me John, what do you see?" Ashley Kafka said.

"I see myself in a deli, don't know the place, but it's definitely night time, looks like I'm... eating." John with his eyes closed.

"Eating what?" Ashley Kafka said.

"I think it's... pastrami, but there's more, I heard noises coming from outside, sounds like someone is getting seriously hurt, so I went outside." John describing the experience.

"And?" Ashley Kafka said.

"There were five guys, they looked bad, they're were beating up an innocent, one of them was pulling a gun and told me to back away, that's when I..." John hesitate to say more.

"When you..." Ashley Kafka said.

John is remembering everything, he remember charging in and attacking that gangster, slicing off his arm with his claws, but then he got to attacking the other thugs by ripping them apart limb by limb, this experience is becoming too intense for John to handle as Dr. Kafka picked up on his heavy breathing as he's getting fearful remembering all these terrible things he's done.

"John? John, what's wrong?" Ashley Kafka is getting worried.

"Ashley, please make it stop!" John still under the hypnotic trance.

"Okay, I'm gonna count to three, then you're gonna wake up! One... two... three!" Ashley Kafka said.

Dr. Kafka snaps her fingers as John finally broke away from the hypnosis and fully woke up, Dr. Kafka gets up and walks up to John who's still shaking from everything he remembered from last night, everything that was done through him.

"John? John, are you okay?" Ashley Kafka is worried.

John still shaking in his bone. "I... I killed them."

"What?" Ashley Kafka is shocked.

"I don't know why, but it felt like I was something else entirely, something... not human." John Jameson said.

"John, you're not making any sense." Ashley Kafka is confused.

"I remember... these blackouts... they happen at a certain time of night." John Jameson said.

John is getting up from the chair and walks up to the window to get his head straight after all the intense experience he remembers, but he looks up at the sky to see it's a full moon, he became more shocked upon seeing it.

"Oh no..." John is breathing heavily.

John got down on his knees and screams as he can feel something happening to his body, Dr. Kafka is more worried as something unusual is happening to John.

"John!" Ashley Kafka walks up.

"GET BACK!" John yells.

Dr. Kafka stopped as John doesn't want her to get too close to him, something strange is starting to happen to his body, he's undergoing a change right before her eyes, he's starting to grow a bit bigger.

"JOHN!" Ashley Kafka yells.

"ASHLEY, GET OUT OF HERE NOW!" John yells.

John is still changing as white fur is forming up around his skin, his legs are turning into digitigrade, he's forming up a straight jaw from his face as he then opens up his eyes that are now red, Dr. Kafka is shocked by what just happened to John, this thing is getting and standing up to showing itself to Dr. Kafka, it's now a Man-Wolf.

"John?" Ashley Kafka said softly.

This Man-Wolf turns it's head and looks straight at Dr. Kafka looking all terrified, seeing the creature that is John, Man-Wolf then approaches to her carefully, Dr. Kafka is all stunned and terrified as the Man-Wolf reach out with his claws but hasn't attack her yet for some reason, but coming crashing through the window is Spider-Man as he drop kick him away from Dr. Kakfa, coming into the apartment are Spider-Girl and Kid Arachnid as all three heroes are seeing the Man-Wolf for the first time, Dr. Kafka is surprised seeing the heroes here.

"Are you alright, Doctor?" Spider-Man said.

"Spider-Man, how did you know there was trouble?" Ashley Kafka said.

"It's a long story, but..." Spider-Man said.

The Man-Wolf is still standing as he's felt provoked being attacked by Spider-Man, he then charged in for an attack, Spidey jumps up to the ceiling as Man-Wolf missed, Spider-Girl fired off some webbings to immobilize it, Kid Arachnid came in for a venom punch to the face, knocking the Man-Wolf down, Spider-Man jumped down and walks up to the Man-Wolf pinned down as Dr. Kafka is worried what's about to happen next.

"Sorry about this." Spider-Man said.

"Spider-Man, wait! Don't hurt him! This creature, it's John!" Ashley Kafka pleaded.

"We know." Spider-Man said.

Ashley Kafka looked surprised. "How?"

"Like I said, it's a long story, but we're already working on a solution to help him." Spider-Man said.

The Man-Wolf is still trapped in webbing as he looks at Dr. Kafka, he then summons all of his strength and broke away from the webbings, caught the heroes by surprise as he swings his arm and knocked both Spider-Man and Spider-Girl away hard towards the wall, Kid Arachnid then tries to strike with a venom punch, but Man-Wolf quickly turns and got a hold of the hero, Spider-Man and Spider-Girl are getting back up to help their friend, Man-Wolf can sense them about to make their move, he tossed Kid Arachnid hard onto them, knocking all three of them down. As the heroes are down, Man-Wolf came up and got a hold of Dr. Kafka, he took her and jumps out of the apartment window and falls down to the street, he landed onto the top of a parked car as people nearby are terrified seeing the Man-Wolf with a female hostage, Man-Wolf makes a run for it and escapes the neighborhood with Dr. Kafka, this caught the attention of the NYPD.

Back at the apartment, Spider-Man, Spider-Girl, and Kid Arachnid are still hurt as they're slowly getting back up, only to noticed that Man-Wolf is already gone along with Dr. Kafka, they rushed over to the window where it made its escape, they look around but still no sign of the Man-Wolf or Dr. Kafka, they're both missing.

Spider-Man sighs. "We're too late."

(Later)

The NYPD have secured the scene as detectives are already inside the apartment of John Jameson doing their investigation, meanwhile on the rooftop above the apartment building are the Web-Warriors gathering their thoughts.

"Looks like we were right, John Jameson is the Man-Wolf." Kid Arachnid said.

"Wow, astronaut by day, werewolf by night, what are the odd?" Spider-Girl said.

"How did he turn into that?" Kid Arachnid is curious.

"Years ago up in space, John and his team were capture by the High Evolutionary, John was the only one to be experimented, whatever the High Evolutionary did to him must've worked, John must be undergoing some kind of pseudo-lycanthropy, changing him during certain times of night, he might not even be aware what's happening, John is only victim of the High Evolutionary's twisted experiment." Spider-Man explained.

"Unbelievable, what a bastard." Spider-Girl said.

"He is, he ruined the lives of two of my friends, turned me into a Man-Spider, he's made John into a Man-Wolf, he ruined many lives all in the name of his twisted obsession for evolution." Spider-Man said.

"So how do we find him?" Kid Arachnid said.

"We'll have to split up and search each of the city until we have a lead, in the meantime Gwen's already at ESU making a cure, the minute we find Man-Wolf, radio in immediately. Got it?" Spider-Man said.

"Got it!" Spider-Girl and Kid Arachnid said together.

"Good luck." Spider-Man said.

All three Web-Warriors are swinging off the rooftop and heading in separate directions in hopes to pick up Man-Wolf's trail, meanwhile driving up to the scene is a limousine as it made a stop, coming out of the back door is Mayor J Jonah Jameson coming out with his fiancée Marla Madison as they looks up at the apartment window where John is staying, Jameson feared the worst has happened to his son, he found Yuri Watanabe here talking with detectives.

"Captain, what happened here?" Jameson said.

"It was the Man-Wolf, he was sighted here jumping out of that apartment, apparently he's taken a hostage, Dr. Ashley Kafka." Yuri Watanabe said.

"Oh my god..." Marla Madison is worried.

"What about my son? Where's John?" Jameson said.

Yuri Watanabe sighs uneasy. "We don't know, we couldn't find your son in the apartment, all we found are signs of a struggle, the entire place has been wrecked."

"What are you saying? You think that something bad has happened to my son? Tell me the truth, is John..." Jameson is more worried.

"We're not sure, but we'll have to consider the possible either John is alive, or worse." Yuri Watanabe said.

Jameson walks away to be left alone to gather his thoughts on the possibly his son is a victim of this werewolf, Marla came up and put her hand on his shoulder for support, Jameson then looks back at the police captain as he's feeling the need to avenge his son.

"Captain, get ever available officer scouring the streets, find this monster and put it down for good!" Jameson gave an order.

"Mr. Mayor, are you sure about this?!" Yuri Watanabe having second thoughts.

"Of course I'm sure, this thing has taken my son, now holds an innocent woman hostage, we cannot let it roam around free while innocent lives are at risk, give the order now!" Jameson demanded it.

"Yes Mr. Mayor." Yuri Watanabe said.

Captain Watanabe is about to reach out to the entire NYPD for a massive hunt for the werewolf on Mayor Jameson's orders, the man is very determined more than ever to take down this werewolf by any means necessary, all to avenge his son John.


Later around 7:54 PM in Central Park which is closed for the night, coming into the park is the Man-Wolf carrying Ashley Kafka on his back, they came up near a lake as Man-Wolf lowers the good doctor gently on her feet, Man-Wolf came to the lake to see his reflection as Dr. Kafka is curious as to why Man-Wolf hasn't hurt her yet, he took her in alive for some reason, she then approaches the Man-Wolf carefully.

"John?" Ashley Kafka said.

Man-Wolf then looks back at the woman calling out to his human name, Man-Wolf walks up to Dr. Kafka and reach his hand out, even though she's a bit scared Ashley could sense there is still something human inside Man-Wolf, she reach out her hand as she wants to get through to him, they're about to communicate until a light shined upon them by an NYPD helicopter hovering above Central Park as more cops are coming onto the park with assault rifles and body armor.

"STEP AWAY FROM THE WOMAN NOW!"

The Man-Wolf can see he's surrounded on all sides by the NYPD as these officers are serious about using lethal force on the Mayor's orders as soon as they have a clean shot, Dr. Kafka is worried they'll kill John in the process as she steps up in between the officers and Man-Wolf.

"Wait! Don't shoot!" Ashley Kafka pleaded.

"Ma'am, get out of the way! We have orders by the mayor to put down this creature!"

"You don't understand, this creature is..." Ashley Kafka trying to reason with them.

Man-Wolf then runs away while he's got the chance as the officers all open fire and started shooting at the Man-Wolf running through the trees for cover, Ashley Kafka was taken by the cops to safety but she's more worried for John who's still trapped inside the Man-Wolf, meanwhile the Man-Wolf itself is running through the trees until he got out and made it to the streets on Upper West Side where fews cops were waiting and started shooting, Man-Wolf move fast enough to dodge the bullets and got in close enough to knock off the guns from their hands, two cops have been disarmed but one still has a gun in his hand as he shot Man-Wolf in the shoulder, injuring him.

Man-Wolf got hurt and provoked, he then strikes back at that cop by scratching his body, wounding the officer badly, Man-Wolf is still hurt as he makes his escape once again, the officers came up to the injured cop as he's seriously hurt, they're holding down the bleeding, keeping him alive until help arrives.

"Officer down, we have an officer down!"

(Upper East Side)

Meanwhile still searching around in Upper East Side is Spider-Man swinging around the neighborhood trying to find a lead on Man-Wolf, until he's receiving news from Ganke Lee on his earpiece, Spidey lands onto a rooftop and taps his earpiece.

"Go ahead Ganke." Spider-Man said.

"Spidey, we have a huge problem." Ganke said.

"What kind of problem?" Spider-Man said.

"The NYPD are mobilizing every available unit in hunting down the Man-Wolf and they've got orders to shoot-to-kill on sight, they've just engaged him in Central Park, but he got away." Ganke said.

"You gotta be kidding me! Who gave that order?" Spider-Man said.

"The orders came directly from the Mayor of New York." Ganke said.

"Jameson, of course. What about Dr. Kafka?" Spider-Man said.

"Oh don't worry, she's alright, they have her back safe and sound, but it gets worse, got word that a cop got injured in the line of duty, he's on his way to the hospital." Ganke said.

Spider-Man sighs. "This is not good, the NYPD will be more motivated in taking down the Man-Wolf. That idiot Jameson doesn't know he's about to have his own son killed cause of him."

"So what you gonna do?" Ganke said.

Spider-Man is thinking of a solution to save John before the NYPD gets him killed.

(City Hall)

At City Hall, Mayor Jameson is in his office with his fiancée Marla as he can't help but think about what could've happened to his son.

"I'm sure John is still alive somewhere, the officers already have Dr. Kafka safe in their custody, maybe she could tell us what happened to John." Marla Madison said.

Jameson is still uneasy and yet motivated into taking down the Man-Wolf, all of a sudden his personal phone is ringing as he pulls out from his suit, it's a blocked number, he answered the call.

"Mayor Jameson." Jameson said.

"Call them off." Spider-Man said.

"Who is this?" Jameson said.

"It's Spider-Man, call off the cops, tell them to stand down!" Spider-Man said.

"How dare you call me at a time like this? Do you realize what's happening out there?!" Jameson isn't happy.

"That's why I'm calling, you have to stop them from killing the Man-Wolf, I might have the means to save him!" Spider-Man said.

"I'm not interested in saving him, I want to put him down in a grave, permanently!" Jameson said.

"YOU IDIOT! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!" Spider-Man raise his voice.

"Who do you think you're talking to, Menace?! Why do you want to save that creature?!" Jameson said.

"CAUSE THAT CREATURE OUT THERE IS YOUR SON! IT'S JOHN!" Spider-Man raises his voice.

Jameson is stunned upon hearing that the Man-Wolf is his son John. "What?"

"You heard me, Man-Wolf is John, it's your son." Spider-Man said.

Jameson still have a hard time believing it. "How do I know this isn't a trick?"

"You want to wait and find out until the cops kills John, if you don't believe me, then ask Dr. Kafka, she knows the truth. In the meantime we're gonna do everything we can to help John... so please believe me and stop those cops before it's too late." Spider-Man said.

Spider-Man hangs up the call as he's still processing everything Spider-Man told him about John being the Man-Wolf, he still doesn't trust Spider-Man but a part of him can't help but wonder if that creature out there is his son and he's about to get killed because of his father, Marla could tell her fiancé is more troubled than ever.

"Jonah, what's wrong?" Marla Madison said.

"That wolf creature out there... I think it's John." Jameson said.

"What?" Marla Madison is shocked. "How?"

"I don't know, I still can't believe it... but I need to find out." Jameson said.

Jameson then dials someone who can give him the truth he needs, he holds up the phone awaiting to hear back.

"Hello?" Ashley Kafka said.

"Dr. Kafka, it's me, Jonah, John's father, I heard about what happened." Jameson said.

"Yes, but I'm okay, I'm with the police, they're about to take me to City Hall." Ashley Kafka said.

"That's good, but listen, the reason I'm calling is because I just heard back from Spider-Man about John, I'm still having doubts but I need the truth and I know you're the one who can give it to me... that creature out there, this Man-Wolf, is it my son? Is it John? Please Dr. Kafka, I need the truth." Jameson said.

Ashley Kafka sighs. "Yes... it's John, it's your son."

Jameson then hangs up the call upon hearing the truth from Dr. Kafka confirming that the Man-Wolf is in fact his son John, he drops the phone and feels more conflicted than ever upon learning the terrible truth, and what's worse is that he's given the order to have the Man-Wolf killed on sight, Marla came by his side and can tell by his expression that it's bad.

"Jonah..." Marla Madison said.

"It's all true... he's my son... it's John." Jameson said.

Marla then picks up the phone and hands it to Jonah. "You have to call the police, tell them to stand down before they kill John."

"You're right... I have to stop this." Jameson said.

Mayor Jameson makes a call to the police commissioner to give the order to stand down on killing Man-Wolf.

"Yes Mr. Mayor?"

"Listen, I need you to order the entire NYPD to stand down on killing Man-Wolf." Jameson said.

"I'm afraid I can't do that."

"Didn't you hear me? I'm ordering you to stand down right now! That's a direct order!" Jameson demanded it.

"It's too late for that, this creature has seriously injured one of our officers, he's in critical condition, I'm sorry Mr. Mayor, but we have to put it down for good." The commissioner hangs up the call.

"Hello? Hello?!" Jameson got hanged up as he slams down the phone in frustration. "DAMMIT!"

"What's happened?" Marla is worried.

"An officer has been injured, the NYPD won't ever stand down, not even under my orders." Jameson breaks down feeling guilty. "Oh god Marla, what have I done?!"

"Jonah, this isn't your fault." Marla Madison said.

"Isn't it, I should've noticed something was going on with John all these months and I didn't do anything, now he might end up dead because of me... it's too late." Jameson still feeling guilty.

"No, it isn't... there is someone who could save your son, but you're not gonna like it." Marla Madison said.

Jameson sighs uneasy. "Spider-Man."

"I know how you feel about men in mask, I wouldn't be asking you to do this if there was no other way, right now this is your son we're talking about, John is out there being hunted like an animal and the police won't stop until they put him down, the heroes are your son's only hope... please Jonah, for John." Marla Madison said.

Jameson is still untrusting of Spider-Man and his friends, since they keep their identities hidden behind mask, but right now the life of his son John hangs in the balance as Jameson is desperate to save him before it's too late.

"You're right... I'll make the call." Jameson said.

Jameson is out of options as he picks up the phone and finds the blocked number Spider-Man used to call him, he redials it hoping it'll reach the web-slinger.

(Upper West Side)

Spider-Man is swinging around Upper West Side hoping to pick up the trail on Man-Wolf, but so far it has gone cold, he then hears the phone ringing as he drops onto the nearby rooftop, he pulls out the phone and sees that Jameson is attempting to reach him.

Spider-Man answered the call. "Did you call off the cops?"

"No, I tried but they wouldn't listen to me, an officer has been injured, they're going all in to kill Man-Wolf when they get the chance." Jameson said.

"So you can't stop them." Spider-Man said.

"No, the reason I'm calling is... because I need your help. Despite our difference and how I think about you, you're the only one who can save my son. Please, John is all I have left in this world." Jameson pleading with Spider-Man.

Spider-Man is stunned upon Jameson calling him for help in saving his son.


It's 8:29 PM back in City Hall as Dr. Ashley Kafka finally arrived at the office where Jameson and Marla were waiting, Marla came up and hugged her friend Ashley feeling relieved that she's alright.

"Ashley, I'm glad you're okay." Marla is relieved.

"Thanks, but I'm more worried for John, he's still out there." Ashley Kafka said.

All of a sudden the window is opening up as Spider-Man along with Ghost-Spider are coming into the office and meet up with Jameson, Marla, and Ashley to talk about John.

"Spider-Man, what are you doing here?" Ashley Kafka said.

"I called him here." Jameson said as Dr. Kafka looks at him with surprise. "Yes, I know, didn't think it would ever come to it, but at this point I'm desperate to save my son."

"That's why we're here, we have a solution. Show him." Spider-Man said.

Ghost-Spider pulls out a syringe full of the cure.

"What is that?" Jameson said.

"It's a cure made specifically for John's condition, using the blood sample we've found, we were able to identify the compounds and had it test, it should in theory undo the effects of his transformation." Ghost-Spider said.

"In theory?" Marla is concerned.

"It's hard to say, John has been living with this condition for over a year, it's hard to tell if it'll purge the wolf DNA in his body, but it's our only option." Ghost-Spider said.

Jameson sighs. "Fine, if it'll help John, then it's worth the risk."

"Easier said than done, we've seen the Man-Wolf in action, he's too fast and very strong, he won't go down without a fight. There's no way we can get close enough to use the cure." Spider-Man said.

"And this is only batch I was able to make, we only have one shot at this, we have to make it count somehow." Ghost-Spider said.

Spider-Man sighs as this is gonna be challenging to use the cure on someone who too fast and strong to pin down long enough, Dr. Kafka then steps up.

"I'll do it." Ashley Kafka volunteers herself.

"Ashley..." Marla Madison said.

"I can be the one who can give the cure to John, I just need you to take me to him when you do find him." Ashley Kafka said.

"Doctor, I appreciate your desire to help your patient, but it's dangerous." Spider-Man said.

"I don't care, I won't turn my back on John." Ashley Kafka said.

"Ashley, an officer has already been injured because of Man-Wolf, if you go out there, you could get hurt or worse." Marla Madison said.

"He won't hurt me." Ashley Kafka said.

"How can you tell?" Spider-Man said.

"Cause he had a chance to do so, but instead he took me alive, there's a chance a part of John still exist within Man-Wolf, a part that has feelings for me. So I might be the only one who can get close enough to him to cure him." Ashley Kafka said.

"Ashley, are you sure about this?" Marla Madison said.

"I can't turn my back on him, John is out there alone, lost control of his life, I'm not doing this as his therapist, cause I have feelings for John too.. so I can't back away, I won't." Ashley Kafka said.

Marla is amazed that Ashley finally admitted her feelings for John after all this time and she's willing to brave enough to help John during his time of need. All of a sudden, Spider-Man is receiving word from Ganke on the earpiece.

"Spidey, are you there?" Ganke's voice.

Spider-Man taps his earpiece. "Go ahead."

"Got a lead on Man-Wolf, he's been spotted at a park in Hell's Kitchen. Kid Arachnid and Spider-Girl are on their way now." Ganke said.

Spider-Man sighs. "If you found out, then the NYPD will too, we don't have much time."

"Don't worry, I was able to intercept the calls on the NYPD tip line, they don't know yet but even I can't get every call, I can only buy you a bit of time before they intervene." Ganke said.

"That's good, thanks." Spider-Man said.

"What is it?" Ghost-Spider said.

"Is it about John?" Jameson said.

"Yeah, it's Man-Wolf, he's in Hell's Kitchen. My teammates are already on their way their, our friend is stalling the NYPD from knowing, but it's only a matter of time before they find out about Man-Wolf, so we need to move fast." Spider-Man said.

"Okay, let's go." Ghost-Spider said.

"Take me with you!" Ashley Kafka said.

"Doctor, are you sure?" Spider-Man said.

"Please... this is my chance to help John, I can't lose him." Ashley Kafka said.

Spider-Man sighs. "Okay Doctor, let's go."

Ashley Kafka is about to head out with the heroes as Jameson steps up before they leave, Spider-Man got a hold of Dr. Kafka.

"Spider-Man!" Jameson said.

Spider-Man was about to climb out the window with Dr. Kafka as he looks at Jameson.

"Please... bring my son back safe." Jameson said.

Spider-Man nodded his head as he finally jumps out the window with Dr. Kafka and Ghost-Spider followed, they're heading to Hell's Kitchen on a mission to save John by any means necessary, Jameson is prayerful that they save his son in time.


Later around 8:58 PM, in Hell's Kitchen a group of people and kids in costumes are keeping their distance from the local park as Man-Wolf is already there alone, Kid Arachnid and Spider-Girl are already at the scene keeping the people away from the park, coming in swinging in the neighborhood are Ghost-Spider and Spider-Man carrying Dr. Kafka as they finally made it down to the scene and joined up with their friends.

"Spidey, Ghost-Spider, you both made it." Spider-Girl said.

"He's still in there?" Spider-Man said.

"Yeah, he hasn't moved yet." Kid Arachnid said.

"Okay good, we'll handle this, in the meantime keep everyone out of the park, we don't need any eyes inside for what we're about to do." Spider-Man said.

"I understand, we got this. Go do your thing." Kid Arachnid said.

"Be careful." Spider-Girl said.

Spider-Man gave the OK sign with his hand before he goes deep into the park with Ghost-Spider and Dr. Kafka while Kid Arachnid and Spider-Girl are keeping away anyone from witnessing this event, a few are on their phones trying to reach the NYPD about the Man-Wolf appearance, but Ganke Lee is still doing his work to keep the calls from getting through as it's becoming very exhausting, but he can't keep it a secret for long, it's only a matter of time until the cops show up.

Deep inside the park is Man-Wolf still feeling injured from the bullet wound on the shoulder he got earlier tonight, he's whining feeling the pain as Spider-Man, Ghost-Spider, and Dr. Kafka are approaching the park carefully until they heard a sound coming deep ahead, they see the Man-Wolf laying on the ground still in pain, Man-Wolf then hears footsteps and sniffs in the air as there are three people coming into the park, one of them is a woman who's scent he recognized, he looks back to see Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider, but upon the sight of the woman Ashley Kafka, he became calm as she's looking upon him.

"John... " Ashley said in a calm voice.

Ashley then takes a few steps forwards to the injured Man-Wolf who doesn't feel hostile towards her, but Spider-Man then steps in as it made Man-Wolf feel agitated, making him growl as he and Ghost-Spider are feeling the need to fight, but Dr. Kafka wouldn't allow it.

"Spider-Man, don't!" Ashley Kafka said.

"Doctor, he's looking very feral, this is a bad idea." Spider-Man said.

"He's just afraid! He won't hurt me as long as you two don't get any closer, I have to do this alone." Ashley Kafka said.

"Still doctor, it's too dangerous." Spider-Man is against it.

"Spider-Man, John is still in there, if there is any hope to save him, it has to be me... please." Ashley Kafka said.

Spider-Man sighs calmly. "Okay, but we'll be here in case you need us."

"I'll be fine... but thank you." Ashley Kafka said.

Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider both backed away a bit as the Man-Wolf is calming down, Ashley Kafka took a deep breath and slowly moves towards Man-Wolf still injured in the shoulder.

"John..." Ashley Kafka said in a soft voice.

Man-Wolf looks up at the woman as the heroes are still keeping their distance as to not agitate him, but still ready to move in in case something goes wrong, Dr. Kafka is taking a huge risk with her life, Man-Wolf is calm and hurt as Dr. Kafka came in closer to see he's hurt in the shoulder by a bullet wound.

"John... it's going to be okay, we're here to help." Ashley Kafka said softly.

Ashley Kafka reach out her hand and petted the Man-Wolf who's very calm in her presence, Ashley lowers her on her knees with her left hand on his head, she's got a syringe held in her right hand behind her back.

"John, I need you to trust me... okay." Ashley Kafka said softly.

Man-Wolf closes his eyes and calms himself, she moves her right hand with the syringe in her grip, Ashley is a bit hesitant to use the syringe with the cure, but it's necessary to save his life before he ends up dead at the hands of cops, she then gently injects the cure into him as he then howls gently as the cure is doing it's work on his body, the changes are starting to reverse itself, transforming him back slowly.

Meanwhile outside the park, Kid Arachnid and Spider-Girl are keeping away the civilians as they wanted this operation to be kept secret, but all of a sudden coming in the neighborhood is a NYPD SWAT vehicle.

Kid Arachnid sighs. "Dammit..."

The armored vehicle parked itself as SWAT officers are coming out armed with automatic weapons, they're coming up to the park until the pair came up and stop them from going any further.

"Can we help you officers?" Kid Arachnid said.

"We got a tip that the werewolf has been spotted in the park, he's in there, isn't he?"

"He is, but it's being handle." Kid Arachnid said.

"We have direct orders from the commissioner to use lethal force to put that thing down."

"I heard, but like I said, it's being handle." Kid Arachnid said.

The SWAT officers all raised their guns at the heroes as this made everyone around the neighborhood nervous.

"Step aside now!"

"Are you threatening us?" Spider-Girl said.

"We're not threatening you, that thing inside the park injured one of ours, and we have orders to put it down. So step aside or you'll both be charged for obstruction, your choice."

Kid Arachnid and Spider-Girl doesn't want to cause any further trouble with the NYPD, especially with people eyeballing and recording everything, they both stepped aside and allowed SWAT to move into the park without any trouble.

Kid Arachnid taps the earpiece. "Spidey, heads up, SWAT is coming, we couldn't hold them back... I'm sorry."

"It's okay, we're all good." Spider-Man's voice.

SWAT units are coming deep into the park until they came across four individuals, they raise their rifles and yells "HAND IN THE AIR, ALL OF YOU!"

Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider both turned around with their hands up, Dr. Kafka is with a now normal John Jameson, his clothes are a bit ripped.

"Please don't shoot, this is John Jameson, the Mayor's son!" Ashley Kafka pleaded.

"Hold fire, all units, hold fire!"

The SWAT officers all lowered their rifles carefully to avoid any unnecessary fatalities to the heroes, doctor and the mayor's son.

"Mr. Jameson, glad you're alright, we thought the wolf creature killed you. Did you see what happened here?"

John Jameson is still hazy. "I..."

"The Man-Wolf was here, he had kidnapped John, we got here in time to save him, but he got away before he could hurt him." Spider-Man lied.

"Yeah... that's what happened." Ashley Kafka lied too.

"So where is this Man-Wolf? What direction did he go?"

"He went south, you might still be able to catch. We're gonna stay and take John to the hospital for a check up."

"Officers, follow me!"

The SWAT officers are leaving the park as to try to pick up the trail on Man-Wolf, after the cops left the park, Kid Arachnid and Spider-Girl came in to find Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider with Dr. Kafka tending to John Jameson who's back to normal, but still a bit hurt.

"The cure... it worked." Spider-Girl said.

"It sure did, but we need to get John to a hospital to get treated." Spider-Man said.

"Agreed, let's go." Ghost-Spider said.

"Come on John, your father is waiting." Spider-Man said.

The Web-Warriors are taking both Dr. Kafka and John to the hospital as they've accomplished their jobs and saved John in time, his secret is safe.


It's 9:29 PM at a hospital where Dr. Jane Foster is treating the bullet wound on John's shoulder with rubbing alcohol, John flinched with pain, here are the Web-Warriors with Dr. Kafka watching as Dr. Foster is wrapping bandage around the shoulder, coming into the room is Jameson with his fiancée Marla, Jameson sees John finished being bandaged but alright and alive, he felt relieved to see his son again.

"John..." Jameson said.

"Dad..." John said.

Jameson came up and hugs his son tight, feeling more relieved he's alive and normal.

"John... never thought I'd see you again, son." Jameson said.

"I'm okay, Dad." John said.

"I'm so sorry John." Jameson said.

"For what?" John said.

"I almost got you killed, I gave the order to have the Man-Wolf killed when I thought he had killed you, I didn't know it was you son, I swear." Jameson felt bad.

"It's okay Dad, you couldn't have known... but, maybe you should've let them kill me." John said.

"Son..." Jameson said.

"I still remember, five people are dead because of me, an officer is injured because of me, there's no turning back from it." John felt guilty.

"John, what happened wasn't your fault, what you went through, it was out of your hands. That officer who was injured, he's still alive, as for those five that died, they were criminals." Ashley Kafka said.

"Still doesn't make it any easy, my life is already over." John said.

"No, it isn't, nobody else knows that you're the Man-Wolf, your life is still intact, we made sure of it, you'll be fine." Spider-Man said.

"Why Spider-Man? Why risk it all to help me?" John is curious.

"Cause I've been your shoes John, I was also experimented by the High Evolutionary, he turned me into a mindless monster, took away my humanity for a while, made me go against my friends, so I know what it's like to be a monster cause of someone's twisted experiment. I was able to return, took back my life, you can too John, it's not too late." Spider-Man said.

"He's right, and you're not alone in this." Ashley Kafka said.

"Ashley... sorry, I mean.." John felt embarrassed.

"It's okay John, I don't mind you calling me Ashley, I like it." Ashley Kafka smile.

"Really?" John is surprised.

Ashley Kafka nodded her head with a smile. "Hmm. Truth is John, I have feeling for you."

"Wow, but... what about your rule about being professional?" John said.

"As far as I'm concerned, I've already finished treating you, but if you still want therapy, I can recommend you to someone else, I wouldn't be breaking any ethics." Ashley Kafka said.

"You sure about this Ashley, you're not afraid?" John said.

"No... not anymore, I think it's time for me to have a life outside of my work, and I like to share it with you John." Ashley Kafka said.

John smile warmly as Ashley finally opened up her heart to John as this got everyone's attention.

Marla coughs. "I think we should give these two some privacy."

"Yeah, take care son." Jameson said.

"Thanks dad, you too Spider-Man, thank you for saving me, for giving me a second chance." John is grateful.

"Anytime, take care John." Spider-Man said.

Jameson, Marla, and the heroes are leaving the room to give John and Ashley some privacy to be alone to express their true feelings for each other.

"Now that our work is done, we should go." Spider-Man said.

"Agreed, let's go." Kid Arachnid said.

Spider-Man and his team are about to leave the hospital until Jameson has something to say.

"Spider-Man... I... well, I just wanted to... you know..." Jameson still being shy.

"You're welcome." Spider-Man said.

Spider-Man and his friends left the hospital as Jameson is very grateful to the heroes, especially Spider-Man for saving his son's life before it was too late.


It's 10:11 PM back in Forest Hills, Queens where Halloween is still going on and kids are out trick-or-treating around the neighborhood, at the Parker-Stacy, Peter and Gwen just got back still wearing their suits as they're taking off their masks and coming up to the living room where they sat down on the couch to relax themselves, Peter uses the remote to turn on the TV and plays a movie called Child's Play 2, a scene where Chucky is suffocating a man in a car with a plastic bag on a raining night while laughing, the couple are very exhausted after a long intense night.

Peter sighs exhaustedly "Finally we're home."

"I know... what is this?" Gwen said.

"Oh, it's an old scary movie called Child's Play 2, my uncle and aunt would often spend Halloween night watching it, it's kinda of a Halloween tradition." Peter said.

"This is your idea of spending Halloween night, watching a scary movie?" Gwen said.

"Okay, what do you have in mind?" Peter said.

"Well..." Gwen being all flirty. "I was thinking we could go upstairs, I can strip out of my suit, and you can give me a massage."

"Hmm, like the sound of that. Peter smile.

Peter and Gwen lean in closer and kiss each as passion is building up between them, leading them to wanting an intimate moment to themselves, but all of a sudden the doorbell is ringing as they stopped kissing passionately.

Peter sighs. "Ah... really?"

"You know the rule, they don't get treats, they'll give us tricks." Gwen smile.

"Right... okay, let's give em candy. But first things first, we should change out of our suits." Peter said.

"Ah... Pete..." Gwen said.

"What?" Peter said.

Peter then looks at himself and Gwen still in their suits.

"Oh..." Peter realized it.

Just outside the door are several kids in costumes waiting as the door finally opens up, Peter and Gwen dressed as Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider are holding the bowl of candy as the kids say "Trick-or-Treat!" Peter and Gwen smile as they're handing out candy to the trick-or-treaters as Halloween is still on.


It's November 1st, time is 12:14 AM in Greenwich Village at the Sanctum Sanctorum where Deadpool still wearing a robe and sitting in the chair narrating the story to the readers as it finally got concluded.

"And there you have it, the end... now, I like to say a few words to the authors of this story, I know you can hear me, have you consider making spin-offs? Maybe even make one about yours truly, I know that I've said it before, but I'm sure there a number of people eager to read a fanfic about me..." Deadpool speaking to the author.

All of a sudden a sling ring portal is opening up as it's connected to Hawaii, coming through the portal are Stephen Strange wearing a Hawaiian aloha shirt with his new wife Clea as they're back home and spotted Deadpool here in the Sanctum Sanctorum.

"What the..." Doctor Strange then shifts his clothes back to his regular attire along with the cloak of levitation, he then forms a spell with his hands. "Who the hell are you?"

"Oh my... you must be Doctor Strange, big fan." Deadpool said.

"Appreciate it, I'll say again, who are you?" Doctor Strange said.

"I'm Deadpool." Deadpool said.

"Deadpool?" Doctor Strange said.

"You haven't heard of me? No, you wouldn't heard of me... go figure." Deadpool said.

"Okay Deadpool, why are you here? And where's Wong?" Doctor Strange said.

All of a sudden coming busting through the room is a ponytail redhead woman dressed in orange wearing a coat with a gem on her choker armed with guns, got everyone's attention.

Doctor Strange sighs. "Great, just what I need, another unwanted guest... Who are you?" Doctor Strange said.

"I'm Elsa, Elsa Bloodstone, I just got into town, word is there's a werewolf roaming around New York, I'm here to hunt it." Elsa Bloodstone said.

"I like your spirit Toots, but sadly my friend Spidey already beat you to it." Deadpool said.

Elsa Bloodstone felt down. "Aah... so I came all this way for nothing?"

"Okay, enough talk, you're both gone, bye bye!" Doctor Strange said.

Doctor Strange moves the portals towards both Deadpool and Elsa Bloodstone, they're both transported all the way to Hawaii and the portal closes behind them, leaving them stranded on a beach. Back at the Sanctum, Doctor Strange and Clea notice something or someone is missing.

Doctor Strange sighs. "Where is Wong?"

All of a sudden they hear a commotion coming from a nearby closet as Doctor Strange and Clea came up to it and opens it up, Wong fell out of the closet all tied up and gagged, he's mumbling wanting to say something, Doctor Strange lowers down and removes the bandana covering his mouth.

"Where is that maniac?" Wong is pissed.


The day is November 2nd, at the 620 loft and garden at Rockefeller center with a perfect view of the cathedral, a number of people have gather around for the wedding, among them are Peter and Gwen dressed fancy for the wedding with Ned and Betty also dressed fancy, a number of prominent New Yorkers are here as well, including Marla's niece, a sixteen year old African American female name Mattie Franklin, meanwhile inside down below is Jonah Jameson all dressed in his suit in the presence of Robbie Robertson, his best man.

"You nervous, Jonah?" Robbie said.

"A bit, last time I had a wedding, I was about to marry Joan, I was very nervous that day too." Jameson said.

"Wow, never pegged you for the nervous type." Robbie said.

"Guess I'm a little rusty, but no matter, I won't back away, I plan to go up to that altar and marry the woman I wanna spend the rest of my life with." Jameson said.

"Good for you Jonah, you deserve to have happiness with a woman after so many years." Robbie said.

"Which reminds me, you still have the rings, don't you?" Jameson said.

Robbie patted his pocket. "Safe in my pocket."

The door opens up as coming in is John Jameson.

"Son." Jameson said.

"Hey dad." John said.

"I'll see you at the altar Jonah. Excuse me." Robbie said.

Robbie leaves the room for Jonah and John to talk alone.

"Still nervous, Dad." John said.

"You're the second person today telling me that, but yeah, a bit. It helps that my son is here on this special day, alive and well." Jameson said.

"Ashley told me that you asked Spider-Man to help save me, honestly I didn't think you would, being prideful and all." John said.

"I didn't think I could, but when it came to you, I had to do whatever it took to save you, even if it means asking the one person I despised for years, it was actually Marla who convinced me to turn to Spider-Man, and it was the right thing... Truth is John, before Spider-Man, I felt nothing but anger and guilt over the death of your mother, instead of healing myself I chose to close my heart off, never truly moving on, but then Marla came into my life, she got me to open up my heart again, healed me of all the pain I carried for years, thanks to her, I found the strength to let go of all that pain, finally moving on... I only hope Joan understand." Jameson said.

"She does understand Dad, what you and mom had was beautiful, she was lucky to live a beautiful life with you while it lasted, now you have a chance to have that again with Marla... she'll understand." John smile.

"I'm so proud of you son, I know that you mom will be proud too, proud of the man you've become." Jameson said.

"If I'm this man, it's cause of you... Dad." John said.

Jameson smile as he and John hugged each other feeling happy.
